  • Title: Cholescintigraphic demonstration of transient and functional common bile duct obstruction in a patient with acute pancreatitis.
    Author: Shih WJ, Marsano L.
    Journal: Bildgebung; 1992 Mar; 59(1):34-6. PubMed ID: 1600363.
    Abstract:
    Cholescintigraphy has proven useful in diagnosis of acute and chronic cholecystitis and evaluation of common bile duct obstruction. Common bile duct obstruction may be due to mechanical obstruction such as impact stone in the common duct or functional obstruction due to sepsis with intra-hepatic cholestasis or acute viral hepatitis. We present a cholescintigram of a patient with acute pancreatitis showing complete common bile duct obstruction.
